Printed on a K1C with .12 mm layer height default settings on OrcaSlicer (some tiny changes to infill I think). Painting the details and cutting the rods were the hardest parts, otherwise building process wasn't too hard loved it.

Fielded at REV: Rift at Ballahack Airsoft, and got a lot of compliments (dw I made sure to give credit). I learned that the 3d printed muzzle, barrel extension, and magazine release were very prone to breaking (plastic is plastic). I may publish a remix of my redesigns when I get the time (I did change the trigger, as in the picture).

I give 4-stars because I believe that the design has a few flaws or design choices that could use improvement, more specifically the trigger linkage and magazine release. Otherwise it is an outstanding design.

Of course, thank you Shirley Productions for spending the time to make the model, its closer than I could ever get to the game files.

(may update)

What is the length of the extension and inner barrel you used?

@Imm2gamer_2048217 I used a 500mm long inner barrel, as well as a 5" and a 2" outer barrel extension. You need about 7 inches total of outer barrel extension, but I couldn't find an extension that long, so I just picked up two and put them both on.

@ShirleyProductions Thank you! I just printed out another barrel extension I found on thingiverse and it fit well.

Any idea if this could work with a v2 gearbox/m4 aeg?

@ShirleyProductions aww man, maybe ill try making adjustments to fit an m4 aeg

@Imm2gamer_2048217 I don't think that's feasible, it would probably just be easier to just make your own kit from scratch. You can still download my model to use as reference in CAD, though. I got it as close to the real thing as possible.

Not going to print as I don't have the gun but I have to commend you on providing this for free with the cad files!

I don't have the plr-16 and I'm not going to print this, but it looks wonderful and makes me want to. Kudos.
